Mon, 28 Apr 2014 21:27:35 +0000http://happyhomebrewer.wordpress.com/?p=63#comment-9I use a plastic bucket fitted with a lid for primary – would a feasible process be to add the sterilized water to the primary fermenter after racking the beer, then stir it up and pour or siphon into a smaller glass container before letting it settle and step 2?

Mon, 28 Apr 2014 20:05:16 +0000http://happyhomebrewer.wordpress.com/?p=63#comment-7Thanks for this thoughtful and detailed article. I am looking forward to trying this. When you decant the yeast in steps 2 & 3, do you use a siphon or simply pour it off, leaving the trub behind? Thanks, phirx
